The Look PX 12 Jib WB (Wide Brake) Binding puts the proven performance of Look’s PX series on a 3mm shock-absorbing platform, taking the harshness out of park, pipe, and otherwise bulletproof landing zones. In the rear, the Look PX heelpiece design is already a freeride favorite for its knee-saving elastic travel, which stretches first to absorb impacts rather than just kicking you out (side effect: you can run a lower DIN setting). Up front, Look added metal reinforcement to the Axial2 toepiece housing, a wide 100mm brake for fatter skis, and the aforementioned dampening platform to make the PX 12 Jib a torsionally stiff, safe-as-houses reference for the freestyle arena. Whether you hit the pipe harder than a seasoned crackhead, zipperline bumps like your name is YKK, or just plain give ‘er all over the mountain, you can stop looking for your binding right now.
Bottom Line: A 12-star general in the binding war.
I'm not an expert on binding technology, but I will say that I feel like I have great control of my skis with these. I have them mounted on my Volkl Bridge skis and they rip through turns and stomp landings. Cool graphics on the binding too.
